Avatars and Passthrough Now Available in MultiBrush!
by Rendever on Apr 1, 2022 2:00:13 PM
This is not an April Fool's Day joke! MultiBrush, the social VR paint application launched on the Oculus Store (Meta Store?!) earlier this year now includes Oculus Avatar integration and Passthrough enablement. This means that you can paint with your friends and *see them as avatars*, rather than a floating headset. And you can turn on passthrough to allow your art to appear in your physical surroundings.
The opportunities for this are endless, and it's just the start! We're working on some big ideas to help shape the VR artist community - we have exciting plans on the horizon, and really can't wait to see what our community creates together. To have a chance of getting featured in some upcoming projects, please tag anything you create and share with #createdwithmultibrush.
See you in MultiBrush! If you haven't yet jumped in, download and get started here.
